Field Day

I recently had the opportunity to take a tour of Ford Field. It was pretty cool to go behind the scenes — and on the sidelines: The stadium stands on the site of the old Hudson’s flagship building and incorporates some of its original structure, such as this brickwork:

These quotes are on the walls at the mouth of the Lions’ tunnel:
The view from the press box:

Words of wisdom in the locker room:

We learned that the stadium opened in 2002 (I don’t pay much attention to such things and was surprised to learn it had been that long). Everything is so pristine, it seems much newer.

All in all, an interesting outing and a fun way to log some activity while learning a bit about the inner workings of one of Detroit’s premier venues.

About me

"It's never too late to be what you might have been." ~ George Eliot
Thanks for visiting my little corner blog. I'm a firm believer in the spirit of Eliot's quote (even if she didn't really say/write it). Some things probably are out of my reach, thanks to my age/genetics -- Olympic gymnast or NFL player, for example. But it's never too late to try new things, to get stronger (inside and out)... in short, to change your life.

I like to read and write about cultivating an effective mindset, getting stronger, being present, and practicing loving kindness (toward ourselves and others).
